LMAO.

Goldberg thought she had a mic drop moment when she made the mind-numbing comment.

"I don't remember asking for [SpaceX]. When did I say, 'Hey, we need another agency next to NASA.'"

"When did we start paying for his stuff? SpaceX."

"He you know that he he's he's gonna be cutting Yeah. Uh, NASA. Yeah. Yeah. That's the competition."

"If we wanna cut some money, let's cut some of these."

Whoopi doesn’t understand that NASA doesn’t actually build stuff. NASA contracts out to have other companies actually do the work.

SpaceX, Boeing, ULA, etc.

like anything else the fed gov does, is always done better and less expensive by the private sector.

Whoopi, Whoopi, whoopi. You should have learned by now to just sit there quietly and let people think you're stupid rather than open your mouth and remove all doubt. It costs American taxpayers ten times as much for any task that NASA takes on compared to the SpaceX cost for the same task. Reusing the main lift rockets alone saves tax payers billions of dollars.

Let you and I select a target project and let NASA and SpaceX both perform the task, with a $1 million dollar fine for each day the project misses its completion date. You pay for the NASA version, and the US taxpayers will pay for the SpaceX contract. If you end up paying less for the NASA bill, I'll call you brilliant and stop talking. If SpaceX ends up costing less, you have to sit down and forever STFU.

yeah, i don’t even know why we need NASA any longer: just cut out the middleman and hire SpaceX directly ...

besides, whoopi, you ignorant moron, if SpaceX was defunded, who would rescue the astronauts NASA marooned in space?

I say this all the time about "The View" TV show, but literally not one freeper on this forum has ever agreed with me, they always say I'm wrong about this:

My contention is that The View is a panel of geniuses but none of them stack up to the once-in-a-generation genius of Whoopi Goldberg. Only Whoopi can see what no other human being can see. Here's the best example:

When Bye-dein was "elected," Whoopi said: President Biden should name his wife, Jill, as the U.S. Surgeon General: "She's a hell of a doctor! She's an amazing doctor!"

Co-host Joy Behar then quietly informed Whoopi that Jill Biden is a teacher. Whoopi's response: Oh.

Imagine that: Whoopi publicly declared Jill Biden to be an "amazing doctor" even though Whoopi had literally zero clue what Jill Biden did for a living. And that's exactly the standard thought process of all Democrat voters: Randomly make bold assertions even though you have absolutely no clue what you're talking about.

Hey - what a great idea for punishment - instead of prison - send convicted criminals to the space station with only a PROMISE of MAYBE returning some day!!!!!!

Could we start with THE VIEW staff? Just for a tryout - no charges or trial - just TRYOUT!!!!
